Seeing her sorrowful smile, Easton's frustration only grew. He didn't know how to explain himself. "But, Natalie, there was evidence every time you framed Jennifer. How do you explain that?"

Each time, it was the evidence that had made him angry. He couldn't understand why Natalie, who had always been so gentle and kind, had changed so much after Jennifer's return.

When she said she would never love him again, the words hurt him deeply.

Hearing this, Natalie felt only a bitter irony. There was no point in arguing; he would never believe her.

You never understood me." She looked off into the distant night sky, her eyes filled with a sense of sorrow.

Following her gaze, Easton felt the weight of her sadness and exhaustion. His heart felt hollow. "Natalie, I'll try to understand you. Let's not divorce, and keep your distance from Maurice, alright?"

Natalie slowly looked back at him, laughing bitterly.' How could anyone be so shameless?'

With a sweet but mocking smile, she replied, "And what will you tell Jennifer? What will you tell the public? The Simpson family? You don't even acknowledge me as your wife, hiding our marriage from everyone while flaunting Jennifer. Why don't you keep your distance from her?"
